Improvement in Thermochromic Offset Print UV Stability by Applying PCL Nanocomposite Coatings

Improvement in Thermochromic Offset Print UV Stability by Applying PCL Nanocomposite Coatings

Thermochromic (TC) printing inks change their colouration as a response to a change in temperature. This ability renders them attractive for various applications such as smart packaging, security printing, and marketing, but their application is limited due to their low UV stability, i.e., loss of t...
